Chapter 396


    "Annual meeting?"


    "I attended the annual meeting..."


    Although it was an awkward situation, Coralie took the initiative to admit it.


    "It was you? Impossible. I have seen the photos from before. She was still wearing the blue dress from


    a few years ago."


    Hazel did not believe that it was Coralie who went to the annual meeting.


    That dress waspletely different from Coralie''s style, who did not prefer luxury brands.


    "Hazel, you investigated me?" Hearing this, Skr waspletely enraged. He swept a nce at


    Hazel, "Pack up your things and leave. You don''t have toe in tomorrow."


    As soon as his words fell, the office fell silent.


    Lorraine was the first to react. She immediately said, "President Hond, although Hazel had not


    worked in Skyton Corporation for a long time, she has contributed to us greatly."


    "Does it give her the right to investigate me?"


    Skr asked instead.


    "President Hond, you think too highly of me. I am merely concerned about your marital status." Upon


    hearing that Skr was about to fire her, Hazel immediately exined herself.


    If she left Skyton Corporation, she would be a total stranger to Skr.


    It will be impossible for her to have any further moves on Skr anymore.


    "My marital status is that my wife and I are engaged and we are nning to hold a wedding ceremony


    at the end of this year. Do you understand now?"


    Skr nced at Hazel and answered word by word. His expression was very serious and he did not


    look like he was only brushing her off.


    "I understand."


    Hazel was not foolish. If she wanted to stay at Skyton Corporation, she should not speak any further.


    She went out holding the files.


    Lorraine followed her out in a hurry.


    "Alright, let''s go."


    Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Skr tugged Coralie towards the elevator.


    While waiting for the elevator, Coralie heard Hazel mming the door loudly from behind, as she was


    losing her temper.


    "Jayson!"


    Skr stood in front of the elevator and called out.


    "President Hond."


    Jayson walked over quickly.


    "Tell Hazel that if she does not want to work anymore, she is weed to leave."


    "Yes."


    Skr''s words were his order. After Jayson replied, he immediately went to Hazel''s office.


    In the office, Hazel sat on a chair and ced both her feet on the table. She did not care about how


    others would look at her as she was enraged right now.


    "Assistant Lowell, who was that woman? Where did that pretentious b*tch came from? President


    Hond is such a smart man. Why can''t he see through her disguise?"


    When Hazel saw Jaysoning in, she immediately made a fuss.


    "I''m afraid you have some misunderstanding about Miss Chariott."


    Jayson did not address Coralie as Mrs. Hond yet. He intended to have a peaceful chat with Hazel


    calmly.


    "Misunderstanding? Doesn''t President Hond have any requirements for his future wife?" Hazel


    huffed.


    "Miss Meyer, looking for one''s other half is not the same as hiring an employee. Why would there be


    any requirements?"


    In fact, Jayson himself didn''t quite understand what Hazel meant.


    "Who is this Miss Chariott? How did she charm President Hond in such a short time? I don''t think she


    has a job, does she? Such a woman! How could President Hond..."


    Hazel stopped speaking.


    She had always felt that if Skr has requirements for his partner, she would meet his requirements


    best.


    However, never did she expect that Skr did not have any requirements for his other half!


    "Miss Meyer, President Hond met Miss Chariott when they were in college. Although there were


    some misunderstandings between them for two years, they are still together in the end."


    Jayson told Hazel what he knew.


    Hazel was taken aback. "What about Valerie?"


    "The Rae family and the Hond family are family friends. They were close to each other when they


    were still kids."


    Jayson exined inly. He did not like to gossip about others.


    "But, Coralie is too..."


    "Miss Meyer, let me give you a piece of advice. If you want to continue working in Skyton Corporation,


    it is better for you to give up on President Hond."


    After saying that, Jayson turned and left.


    In his opinion, if he had to choose, Coralie would be more suitable for Skr whenpared to Hazel.


    Skr and Coralie went straight to the first floor.


    The driver was waiting for them downstairs.


    "Did Hazel say something to you just now?" Skr asked.


    When Skr entered the room and felt the tension between Hazel and Coralie, he knew that there


    must have been a dispute between them.


    "She just thinks that you are better off with someone else."


    Holding Skr''s arm, Coralie felt somewhat sullen.


    It seemed that many people had thought Skr would be better off with someone outstanding,


    someone other than her.


    "I have said it before, I will choose my own wife." Skr did not bother about it too much. He looked at


    Coralie''s bare fingers before saying, "Why aren''t you wearing the ring?"


    Perhaps if she had worn the ring on that day, she would not encounter so many problems.


    "I''m afraid of death..."


    "Afraid of death?" Skr gave her a funny look.


    "That''s right. What if someone cuts my hands off in order to rob the ring? Many robbers rip off the


    victim''s ears to rob their earrings..."


    After all, the ring was incredibly high profile. Although it was not like a golden egg, with its high purity, it


    was radiant and easily recognizable.


    "Go to Juvene Jewelry."


    Hearing Coralie''s words, Skr instructed the driver immediately.


    "Why?"


    Coralie wondered what Skr was nning to do.


    Skr intertwined his fingers with hers, lifted her hand and kissed them gently. He said, "Let''s buy a


    low profile ring."


    "I don''t think it''s necessary. Why do I need so many rings?"

    "It''s decided."


    Skr knew that Coralie was going to reject him again.


    Juvene Jewelry was considered to be thergest jewelry brand in A City. There were many famous


    designer series in this brand.


    However, when Coralie got out of the car, she saw that the store was empty. There was not a customer


    in sight.


    It was a sharp contrast with several brands selling clothes or bags nearby.


    "Are they closed?"


    As Coralie asked, two shop assistants walked out and opened the ss door.


    When they reached the door, the shop assistant said respectfully, "President Hond, Mrs. Hond,


    wee."


    "I thought the store was closed," Coralie said.


    She entered the store and saw that it looked exactly like what she had expected. There were a total of


    five shop assistants and zero guests.


    "Mrs. Hond, the price of our brand is..."


    "There''s no need for introductions."


    Initially, the shop assistant wanted to brag about the pricing level of their brand. Whenever they


    mentioned it, it would satisfy their female customer''s vanity as they would feel like they were at the top


    of the pyramid.


    Skr already knew what they were going to say, thus he interrupted.


    "Take us to the VIP area for selection."


    Skr told the shop assistant straightforwardly.


    "Sure. President Hond, Mrs. Hond, pleasee with me."


    The shop assistant took them to the second floor, which was the VIP area. The interior was the same


    as the ce where they saw the raw diamonds before and the jewelry were all disyed in transparent


    cabs. There were couple rings and individual rings.


    "Why are they not priced? Is it normal in such high-end stores?"


    Coralie frowned. She looked at them carefully. There were so many rings on the second floor, but none


    of them werebeled with a price.


    There were only small signs in front of the rings, but names were written instead of prices.
